Father Lin also said, “We will not go out then. Going out always costs money. Look at all the things you and Ah Jian bought for us this morning. Every time we come, you both buy so many things for us to take back.”
Although most of it was paid for by their son, He Yuehua had also bought some.
“Ah Jian, your clinic is closed today, so you have time this afternoon. Why not take Yuehua out for a walk, to relax a bit? You two are always tied to the clinic, so you probably have no time to go out and enjoy yourselves.”
Mother Lin suggested.
He Yuehua looked at her boss, her eyes filled with anticipation.
She did want to go out with Doctor Lin. Even if it was just a short self-drive tour nearby, as long as she could be with him, she would be happy.
After a moment of silence, Lin Jian said, “I do not know where to go. Yuehua, where would you like to go?”
“How about the seaside? I have not been to the seaside for a long time. I want to go there, feel the sea breeze, eat some seafood. I really like eating seafood.”
Among the dishes prepared at lunch, there were prawns, but only one prawn dish.
Seafood was too expensive, so she rarely bought it usually.
Even the prawns were only purchased because Father Lin and Mother Lin had come. Only then did she splurge on a couple of pounds.
Hearing He Yuehua say she wanted to go to the seaside, Mother Lin’s eyes lit up. She said to her husband, “It has been a long time since we went to the seaside too. Why not go along with them?”
“Ah Jian, let us go to the seaside for the afternoon. Mum also wants to swim in the sea, feel the breeze, eat seafood.”
Both Father Lin and Mother Lin could swim.
Since his parents wanted to go, Lin Jian said, “Then this afternoon we will go to the seaside. The drive to the seaside is a bit far. If we set off now, we can find a hotel there for the night, so we do not have to rush.”
“We will return early tomorrow morning. I will take Mum to the hospital for her check-up.”
“Fine. Then we will go and pack now. We need to take two sets of spare clothes.”
Father Lin and Mother Lin happily put down the fruit plate and went back to the room to get their clothes.
He Yuehua did not have any spare clothes here. Although she often came over to take care of Doctor Lin, she never stayed overnight.
She loved Doctor Lin deeply, but she would not shamelessly linger here for the night. Except for that one evening when he was extremely drunk, she had stayed once.
However, the place she rented was not far from Lin Jian’s.
“Doctor Lin, I will go back and pack two sets of spare clothes too.”
Lin Jian hummed in agreement. “You go ahead. Once you are packed, just wait downstairs at your building. I will drive over directly to pick you up.”
“Okay.”
He Yuehua left, full of joy.
Pleasing Father Lin and Mother Lin had indeed helped her.
Now, she had finally managed to get Doctor Lin to take her to the place she wanted to visit. Even though Father Lin and Mother Lin were coming along, it was different because she had suggested it first, and Doctor Lin had agreed.
Watching He Yuehua leave with such delight, Doctor Lin felt extremely uneasy inside.
He took out his mobile, checked the time, and then called Zeng Xiaoya.
At this hour, Xiaoya should have just finished her lunch break and be preparing to go to work.
Zeng Xiaoya had indeed just got up from her lunch break and was about to go downstairs. Zhan Yue was already waiting ten minutes early at the entrance of the Zeng family clinic.
When she received the call from Senior Lin, Zeng Xiaoya did not hesitate and answered it.
She did not love Senior Lin. She had rejected him time and again, but she did not want to fall out completely.
Since they could not become husband and wife, they could still be friends. They could maintain their relationship as alumni.
